Augsburg is experiencing a steady campaign as the team hovers comfortably in mid-table, showing resilience without threatening the European spots. The home form of Augsburg has been solid, with crucial wins against tough opponents, such as the 2-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt. To end the season on a high, Augsburg must remain focused and maintain the intensity shown in recent games, especially in their final fixture against Union Berlin.
Augsburg has 10 wins, 9 draws, and 14 defeats, reflecting a team that has avoided the drop but lacked the consistency for a higher push. While the defence has improved, moments of poor concentration still occur. The focus now must be on building confidence with a strong finish and setting a foundation for next season.
Augsburg: Lineup
Jess Thorup will have the luxury of fielding a settled squad for this game, with Augsburg already safe and no major injury issues to disrupt preparations. With nothing at stake, Thorup may use this opportunity to give minutes to some fringe players, though the core of the starting eleven is expected to remain intact. Augsburg will aim to control proceedings in midfield and play with freedom, hoping to finish the season on a positive note.
It is widely expected that Augsburg will adopt their familiar 3-4-2-1 setup, with Dahmen in goal and a defensive trio featuring Gouweleeuw, Uduokhai, and Bauer. The wing-backs—likely Vargas and Iago—will offer width, while Engels and Rexhbecaj operate centrally. Demirović and Maier will provide attacking support behind Berisha, who is expected to lead the line.
🔖 Augsburg projected starting lineup (3-4-2-1)
Dahmen – Bauer, Gouweleeuw, Uduokhai – Vargas, Rexhbecaj, Engels, Iago – Maier, Demirović – Berisha
⛔️ Out: No significant injuries reported; full squad available

Union Berlin: form and statistics
The form of Union Berlin has been patchy but sufficient to ensure safety in the Bundesliga, with the team showing defensive resilience but lacking consistency in front of goal. Their campaign has been marked by gritty performances and narrow victories, although prolonged goal droughts and away struggles have hindered stronger progress. The midfield duo of Khedira and Laïdouni has offered control, while Becker and Hollerbach provide pace and width in the final third.
With 15 points remaining to be played for, Union have no pressure heading into the final matchday. They will likely approach this game with freedom, aiming to frustrate Augsburg defensively, take their chances on the break, and end the season with a morale-boosting result.
Union Berlin: Lineup
Union Berlin has no major injury concerns and enters the match with a fully available squad. With Bundesliga survival already confirmed, Bjelica may use this game to give opportunities to fringe players, though several regular starters are still expected to feature in the final lineup.
It is highly expected that Union Berlin will stay compact defensively with Khedira and Laïdouni anchoring the midfield, while Becker and Hollerbach offer pace and transition threats on the flanks. The backline of Knoche, Doekhi, and Leite will look to absorb pressure and protect Rønnow in goal. Up front, Behrens is likely to start as the lone striker, supported by vertical runs from midfield.
🔖 Union Berlin projected starting lineup (3-5-2)
Rønnow – Knoche, Doekhi, Leite – Trimmel, Laïdouni, Khedira, Tousart, Roussillon – Becker, Behrens
⛔️ Out: No major injuries reported
👤 Head coach: Nenad Bjelica
